Silenced starved insects had lower survival rates when compared to control insects. Accordingly, when examined during the starvation period for monitored activity, silenced insects had lower spontaneous locomotor activity and lower forced flight rates. Furthermore, we found that some genes involved in lipid metabolism had their expression levels altered in silenced insects, such as the Brummer lipase (down regulated) and the adipokinetic hormone receptor (up regulated), suggesting that, as previously observed in mammalian models, the
